    Those are all some inspiring tanks!
    Especially that one right in the first post, I love the way it wraps around the room :)

    I'm still in the dreaming phase, but it's going to be one of my goals for the next 5 years to build myself a 4m x 60cm x 60cm planted river tank and fill it with Asian biotope fish, mainly loaches and other active schooling fish. It'll have natural sunlight from skylight tubes, and a computer-controlled LED setup that I can use to simulate weather and other such things, and all the pumps and sensors and stuff will be computerised as well. I've got it all planned out, now I just need to buy a house and some glass...

    And seeing that fish highway makes me want to connect some tanks with acrylic tubes! (I just won't do it up in the ceiling, attached to the walls will be good enough for me thanks. hehe)

    Hi all
    But don't they say, size doesn't matter:blink1:
    I agree with escimo, more quality less quantity!

    You can't really call it a tank, can you? More like an ornament! Still, an amazing piece of work.
